FAQs
What causes fence posts to lean in Wilmington's sandy soil, and how do you fix it?
Wilmington's sandy, loose soil can shift during heavy rains or freeze-thaw cycles, causing fence posts to lean. C & K Fence solves this by setting posts in concrete below the frost line and using gravel for drainage. For existing leaning posts, we can re-set them with bracing or install galvanized steel posts for extra stability.
How can I prevent my wooden fence from rotting in the humid Wilmington climate?
Humidity and salt air accelerate wood rot. Choose pressure-treated lumber or cedar, which naturally resists decay. C & K Fence applies a water-repellent sealant and installs gravel at the base to reduce moisture contact. Regular annual cleaning and re-sealing also extend the life of your fence.
My fence was damaged by a hurricane—can C & K Fence help with storm repairs?
Absolutely. We specialize in storm damage repair across Wilmington, from Wrightsville Beach to Landfall. We assess wind and debris damage, replace broken panels, straighten bent posts, and reinforce gates. Our materials are selected to withstand high winds, and we work quickly to secure your property after a storm.
